The town and hamlets now comprising the manor of Glossop appear to have been divided in the time of Edward the Confessor into several parts among different Saxon proprietors, but in the Domesday Survey the whole of Glossop is put down as forfeited to the Crown ; and the Conqueror afterwards gave it to his natural soil, William Peveril, whose son Richard, however, being disinherited by Henry I. Glossop was again confiscated to the Crown, and in 1157 was granted by Henry II. together with the advowson of the church to the Abbey of Basingwerke, “in free and perpetual alms for ever,” and this abbey had acquired before the 15th century nearly all the hamlets now comprising the Glossop estate; Glossop remained the property of Basingwerke Abbey till the dissolution of the lesser abbeys in 1536, when Henry VIII. seized it with other conventual property and afterwards granted it to the Earl of Shrewsbury, who in turn exchanged it with the Duke of Norfolk for estates in Ireland, and in this noble family it has remained to the present time: the present proprietor, lord of the manor and principal landowner, is the Right Hon. Lord Howard of Glossop J.P. cousin to the present Duke of Norfolk.

HAYFIELD is a township and parish, formed in 1837 from that of Glossop and consisting of the hamlets of Great Hamlet, Phoside and Kinder, in the High Peak division of the county, Glossop county court district, hundred of High Peak, petty sessional division of Chapel-en-le-Frith, Hayfield union, rural deanery of Glossop, archdeaconry of Derby and diocese of Southwell: Hayfield is 5 miles south from Glossop station, 4 north from Chapel-en-le-Frith, 18 from Manchester, 10 from Buxton, 3 from New Mills and 11 south-east from Stockport, and is the terminus of a branch line from New Mills on the Sheffield and Midland railway : the village, built of stone, has a scattered and bleak appearance, and is about 622 feet above the sea-level, standing on the banks of the Sett, a rapid mountain stream which rises on the western slopes of the Peak. The church of St. Matthew, situated between the Kinder stream and Phoside valley, was originally erected in 1386, and rebuilt in 1818 at a cost of £2,000, and is an edifice of stone in the Early English style, consisting of chancel, nave, aisles, south porch and an embattled western tower with pinnacles, containing a clock and 6 bells: there is a monument with bust, by Bacon, to the late Joseph Hague esq. of Park Hall, d. 1786, and others to the Rev. John Badley, curate of Hayfield (1764), and to the Rev. George Buckley Bower B.D. rector of Great Billing, Northants, and archdeacon of Richmond, Yorks (1800) : the stained east window was erected in December, 1879, by Mrs. Bennett, of Birch House, in memory of her husband ; and there are others to the late Levi and Elijah Hall, Mrs. Hall, of Moorlands, and the late Wright Turner esq. (1881) : the church affords 850 sittings, 50 being free: an additional burying ground of 1 acre was bought by a rate and consecrated in 1862 : the Rev. John Wesley visited Hayfield and preached in the church in 1733, during the incumbency of Mr. Badley. The register dates from the year 1622. The living is a perpetual curacy, gross yearly value £180, in the gift of the resident freeholders, and held since 1877 by the Rev. Ricketts Raymond Ricketts, of St. Bees : a parsonage house was erected in 1869, at a cost of £1,200, raised by subscription. There are Wesleyan, Primitive Methodist and United Methodist chapels, and Liberal and Conservative clubs. The facilities for manufacture, owing to the abundance of water, are very considerable, and two extensive calico-printing works are carried on, besides the print works at Birch Vale, a mile south : there are also two paper mills at Bank Vale, and cotton mill at Little Hayfield : formerly a good deal of twine, locally known as “bant,” was made here: twice a year a shepherds’ meeting is held, when the various sheep marks are agreed upon and strayed sheep exchanged: fairs for cattle are held here May 12th and October 10th. The charities amount to £23 yearly for clothing, chiefly by the gift of the late Joseph Hague esq. of Park Hall (1778): prior to 1820 the poor had a right of turfery on “Old Pits,” a plot of 40 acres on Leygate Moor. Due south of Hayfield lies Chinley Tor, a steep and rugged mountain, 1,493 feet high, commanding fine views over the valley of the Goyt and the adjacent summit of Eccles Pike (1,225 feet) southwards ; to the west lie Whaley Moor (1,347 feet) and Sponds Hill (1,357 feet); northwards there is an extensive prospect over Disley, Poynton Park and the plains of Cheshire: this district is believed to have been at one time in Roman occupation, and some coins of the 8th century have been found on the Doctors’ road, near Bowden Bridge, one part of which road was paved : previously to 1830, the flat piece of ground near the Kinder Print Works was common land, and known as “ Cutlers’ Green,” cutlery having, it is said, been made here before its manufacture was known in Sheffield : halfway between this spot and Hayfield is the Whitworth well, famous for its curative properties. The village, from its peculiar situation, has always been liable to floods, one of which, in 1748, destroyed some lives, several water mills and part of the churchyard; in August, 1799, the bridge was washed away, and in 1809 a number of buildings ; again, on the 16th June, 1858, the torrent tore up the mill weir and carried away the backs of four houses abutting on the stream. By an ancient custom Hayfield had the privilege of electing a mayor, an office which the late John Hobson esq. filled for thirty years: Joseph Bowden esq. was elected mayor of Hayfield in 1844. Park Hall, 1 mile north of Hayfield, was formerly the abode of the late Joseph Hague, a generous benefactor to this neighbourhood: he began life by selling small articles from a basket, and subsequently went to London, where in course of time he became an opulent merchant; he died at Park Hall on the 12th March, 1786, and was buried at Glossop. The Duke of Devonshire K.G. is lord of the manor ; F. J. Sumner esq. is the principal landowner. The area of the township is 7,920 acres, and of the parish 11,309 acres; rateable value, £13,438 ; the population of the township of Hayfield in 1881 was 2,801, including 82 officers and inmates in the workhouse; and of the parish 4,034.

CHINLEY, BUGSWORTH and BROWNSIDE form a township in the ancient parish of Glossop (the three places being united for poor rates, but separate for the repair of highways), in the High Peak division of the county, High Peak hundred and Chapel-en-le-Frith petty sessional division, union and county court district.
Chinley is 2 miles north from Chapel-en-le-Frith, with station for passenger and goods traffic on the Midland railway, 172 miles from London. The Dore and Chinley branch of the Midland railway, now in course of construction and including a fine viaduct, will join the Ambergate and Manchester branch here. Here is a Congregational chapel with an endowed Sunday school, receiving about £20 yearly from rent-charges on the Town hall at Chapel-en-le-Frith, left by the late Thomas Slack esq. M.D. Here are also paper, sheet wadding and cotton wool mills.
Bugsworth is 9 miles south from Glossop, 3 west-north-west from Chapel-en-le-Frith, 9 north-north-west from Buxton and 168 by road from London and 173 by rail, on the borders of Cheshire and divided from that county by the river Goyt, which is here crossed by a stone bridge. The Midland railway has a station here, and parcels by passenger trains addressed to residents in this township should be forwarded by that line and not via Whaley Bridge. Here is the terminus of the Peak Forest canal, running to Manchester, Macclesfield, Staffordshire, Huddersfield and Wakefield. The Peak Forest Tramway also commences here, terminating at Dove Holes, and is used for carrying mineral produce and goods in conjunction with the canal. St. James’ church, built in 1874 at a cost of about £1,400, is a building in a modern Romanesque style, and consisting of apsidal chancel, nave of three bays and a bell-cot containing one bell: the church will seat about 200 people, and is under the control of the Rev. Adam Pyle Hamilton-Wilson, vicar of Glossop ; the Rev. James Bower, of St. Aidan’s, has been curate-in-charge since 1885. A burial ground was consecrated here in 1879, the land being conveyed to special diocesan trustees for interments according to the rites of the Church of England only. There is a Primitive Methodist chapel here, built in 1876, and seating 200; the Congregationalists hold services in a public schoolroom. Large quantities of lime and grit stone are obtained from the local quarries, which are extensively worked : there is also a colliery and a lime kiln. Lord Howard of Glossop is lord of the manor of Bugsworth.
